Unanswered: database partitioning feature

Hi Guy,

Thanks for ur quick responses regarding my queries.
I have one more question.

Database Partitionning Feature is supported in DB2 V9.5 or not.?
If not then when did it get fixed.?
As far as my knowledge goes, they started multi-partition feature again with Db2 V9.7 with fix pack 2.
Thanks in adv.

Database Partitioning Feature is available for DB2 9.5 and DB2 9.7 (all fixpacks), but its name has changed to InfoSphere Data Warehouse in 9.7. But you can just apply the InfoSphere Data Warehouse license file on to an existing ESE installation and you are all set with DPF.

DPF (hash partitioning across multiple nodes) is different than Table Partitioning (also known as range partitioning on a single node, often times by a date column, etc) which is included with DB2 ESE 9.5 and 9.7.
